Question

My child has a weak constitution and often experiences respiratory discomfort and persistent wheezing. The hospital has diagnosed them with bronchial asthma. They are currently undergoing treatment. What should we pay attention to in our daily lives?

Answer

The typical symptoms of bronchial asthma include coughing, wheezing, and difficulty exhaling. Treatment mainly involves anti-infection, asthma control, and symptomatic treatment, with inhalation therapy being the primary method. In daily life, it is recommended to pay attention to the following points:

  1. In terms of diet, avoid eating fish, shrimp, and other foods that may cause allergies.
  2. Encourage your child to participate in sports to enhance their physique.
  3. Be mindful of staying away from allergens such as dust mites and pollen to reduce the chance of asthma attacks.
  4. Prevent respiratory infections as they may trigger or worsen asthma symptoms. I hope these suggestions are helpful to you, and wish your child a healthy growth.
